Review

Allview Retreat has received glowing reviews from satisfied families who have experienced the warm and compassionate care provided by this assisted living facility. Over the span of six months, one family expressed their gratitude for the clean and comfortable environment in which their father received care. The dedicated staff at Allview Retreat ensured that all the comforts of home were provided, giving the family peace of mind and making their father happy with their decision.

Another review highlighted how Allview Retreat had been instrumental in the recovery process of a 77-year-old man who had suffered rib and hip fractures. The caring and attentive staff, particularly Kim and Tracey, went above and beyond to include him in family gatherings and outings, allowing him to heal as if he were with his own loved ones. Surrounded by genuinely caring individuals, he left Allview Retreat healthier and happier than before.

A third review shared a heartbreaking experience with a large assisted living facility in Columbia but praised Allview Retreat for completely turning things around for their elderly mother. The owners, Kim and Matt, along with their medically trained family members, made her feel like a member of their own family. Despite her age and health conditions, they quickly adapted to her needs and provided excellent care. Within a short period of time, her overall health significantly improved.

In yet another heartfelt testimonial, a family expressed deep gratitude for the personalized care provided by owner Kim Beaumont and her dedicated family members at Allview Retreat. They noticed an incredible transformation in their mother's outlook on life during her month-long stay at the facility. Through engaging conversations, physical activities, mental stimulation, beautiful surroundings, and delicious meals/snacks tailored specifically to her needs, she regained confidence and found joy in everyday life.

Overall, these reviews paint a picture of an exceptional assisted living facility that goes above and beyond to provide personalized care tailored to each individual resident's needs. With compassionate staff who treat residents like family members rather than mere patients, Allview Retreat offers a safe and nurturing environment that promotes healing and happiness.
